Erika Jayne is done dating a certain type of guy.
In a February 16, 2022 interview, the “Real Housewives of Beverly Hills” star told People she is not interested in dating men who are older than her. Erika, 50, was married to power attorney Tom Girardi, 82, for more than 20 years before filing for divorce in November 2020.
“I’m not doing the older thing anymore,” Erika told the outlet. “I’m 50, so maybe somebody in my age range, but I’m not doing [it] anymore.”
Erika long defended her marriage to the wealthy older attorney.
“I’ve dealt with this forever: the younger woman that married the wealthier, older man,” she said in an April 2020 episode of “The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills,” per Bravo TV. “I mean, I’m tired of having to justify my 20-year marriage. Go get a 20-year marriage, then come f***ing talk to me. …Yeah I married a guy that’s 33 years older than me and yeah he’s got a lot of money, but you know what? He’s a f***ing good man. And that is the most important thing.”

In the new iinterview, Erika noted that she is ready to have “fun” after her messy divorce from Girardi was capped off with a string of embezzlement lawsuits and other drama.
“I love intelligent men and I like people that are confident,” the Bravo star told People. “And I want to have fun. I would really like to have a nice conversation.”
Erika previously opened up about other qualities she is looking for in a potential partner. “I think every girl, you know, likes a guy with money,” she told TMZ in October 2021.
The “Pretty Mess” singer also revealed that the number one quality she is looking for in a man is “intelligence,” and that looks are “on the lower scale” of importance. At the time, Erika claimed that age didn’t matter to her, but said she does draw the line at dating anyone under 25-years-old.
During the RHOBH season 11 reunion last fall, Erika also shocked her co-stars and Bravo host Andy Cohen when she revealed that she wants to find a well-endowed man so she can have some “hot sex,” according to Hollywood Life.
While she knows what she wants in a man, don’t expect to see Erika on a public date anytime soon. “I’m choosing to keep my personal life a little private right now,” she told People. ‘It’s not exactly tumbleweeds, but there are some hot moments. I don’t kiss and tell, so I’m not telling.”
